			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>It is too easy to spend money. Grabbing lunch at Boots and picking up cute, cheap jewelry is the latest way to piss away money £5 at a time.</p>
<p>So far, two rings and a pair of earrings&#8230;.</p>
<p>The spelling is jewellery in the UK.  There&#8217;s a nice wikipedia article on <a title="American and British English spelling differences on wikipedia" href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/American_and_British_English_spelling_differences" target="_blank">American and British English spelling differences</a>.</p>
<p>When I was a kid growing up  in Brooklyn I liked the British u added to colour and labour. I found it aesthetically pleasing or something. I wrote colour on a spelling test which was marked wrong. Being a nerd I brought in a dictionary and pointed out to my teacher that it was an acceptable alternate spelling.</p>
